The 28th Cavendish Federal Election was held on 3 June, 2015 to elect all 550 members of the Cavendish House of Burgesses. The incumbent centre-left Social Democrat government, led by Prime Minister Emily Harrington, was dramatically defeated, losing nearly all of their seats as Quinn Bromley’s centrist Liberal Party was swept to their first majority government since 1946.
The Liberals gained more seats than any other party in one election in Cavendish history. Bromley became the first woman to become Prime Minister from opposition, and became the first rookie leader to lead her party from minor-party status to government. Harrington became the first Prime Minister to lose her own seat at a federal election, as well as the longest-serving Prime Minister to have never received an electoral mandate. This is marked the first time in which both the outgoing and incoming Prime Minister came from the same province (the Royal Free State). This is the first election in history in which the Progressive Conservatives finished neither first nor second nationally, in either votes or seat-count.
